Absolutely unforgettable birthday cruise!

5.00I spent my birthday out on the water with this incredible crew, and it was hands-down the best celebration I could have asked for. The sunset cruise itself was breathtaking, but the crew truly made the night. They cooked up a phenomenal meal, kept the wonderful, fun music flowing, and created an amazing, high-energy vibe from start to finish. If you want a perfect day on the water with a team that goes above and beyond, book them immediately. Thank you all for making my birthday so special
Perfect Family Birthday Celebration

5.00The sunset dinner cruise was spectacular. We arranged as a surprise birthday celebration for our mother’s birthday & we arrived to find balloons & a cake on board! The crew were so lovely and attentive to our needs, and created a wonderful celebration for us. We spent a while on the upper deck together which provided wonderful views and a space to chat. We sang, drank and jumped into the Indian Ocean during the sunset, which was so beautiful. Would recommend for any families or couples.
An Exciting and A Great Fun Experience

5.00This is a great experience. It is worth it. After a long bumpy ride in Serengeti, this is a way to relax and see the other side of Tanzania. Beautiful sunset, good food, and great company (Dhow company crew) I love it!!. We had fun dancing and enjoying the ride/sail with the crew (Cronix, Said, Ali, Nice, Sammy and Safe)

5.00We had a very pleasant experience on this dhow cruise. We were looking for something private and personal, and they truly delivered that. The crew was respectful, never invasive, and allowed us to enjoy the moment together the entire time. The food was prepared in generous portions and everything was delicious. I also chose this setting to propose at sunset, and I can honestly say that for anyone wanting to capture such a special moment, it looks absolutely beautiful in photos and videos. It made the memory even more unforgettable.
An Absolutely Wonderful Experience!

5.00We took a boat trip on November 27th, and it was truly an unforgettable day one of the absolute highlights of our holiday. It was a friend birthday, and the crew made the celebration incredibly special, even surprising us with a delicious cake. The entire trip was exceptional. The atmosphere was warm and joyful, and we enjoyed every moment from beginning to end. The food and drinks were excellent, with every detail perfectly arranged. The staff was not only friendly and welcoming but also highly professional. They played great music, and we even danced as the sun set the view was simply beautiful. A truly memorable experience and highly recommended!
Great. Great.

5.00The crew of the Dada gave our family of 6 (all adults) a wonderful sunset cruise. Sailing on a traditional wooden dhow was amazing. We didn’t have an awesome sunset, but the excellent food (prepared by the crew on the boat), drinks (cold and plentiful), music (our own selections on their Bluetooth speakers), and warm hospitality of the crew made for a really fun and memorable experience!
An amazing evening!

5.00Great atmosphere, delicious food, and an outstanding crew – many thanks to Sultan, Minje and Mjumbe, who took such great care of us on the boat. Communication with Zanzibar Dhow was excellent from start to finish. It was an absolutely fantastic and unforgettable experience! We highly recommend the sunset cruise!
Our best tour in Zanzibar!!!

5.00Forget the usual tours of the island. Our sunrise dinner was wonderful from beginning to end. Starting with team education. All very polite and courtesy. The food was delicious, everything prepared on time, fresh and extremely clean. The taste was unmatched. Our boat was beautifully decorated and very clean. I would like to point out that, unlike other tours, at no time the team suggested paying through the "tip box". The drawer I gave was free and spontaneous because of the Service provided which was excellent!
